I shared this place on minube because I think there aren't a lot of people ve have have come in after it reopened and to take advantage and say that unless you're big fans, it's not really worth it, especially for the 9 euros they

Sometimes it is surprising that in monumental cities like Brussels the most well-known landmark, as in this case, is a small statue 50 cm high of a boy urinating, which everyone would pass without even looking if it weren't for the

Stores like this are very unusual to find in Spain, though in Belgium there are plenty of them. In Brussels you'll find quite a few. To me, they are beautiful and charming!! The Passage du Nord is a gallery covered with windows, and

Where to eat during your

trip to Brussels

Today we went to Chez León and it was packed. We love this place. At first we were going to go to La Terraze but we didn't get the route. The truth is we weren't disappointed. The mussels were to die for and so were the gratins.

The waffles here are very good. The peeing mannequin eating waffles was so funny that I had to put a picture up of it. It would've been nice to sit and eat a piece of these waffles in a more comfortable way, though. Prices for a

This is a brewery, like a pub which is just opposite the Manneken Pis. I went because I was impressed by the décor, with lots of puppets. It's great to eat something light, like the snacks offered. It's in a very wide pavement, almost

Hello Traveler! I recommend this taverna located between the Grand Place and the building of The Bourse (Stock Exchange). It's quiet and comfy where you can eat simply, cheaply, and tastefully. The service is very good and the general

Zebra Cafe in my opinion is the most authentic neighborhood cafe. The music is electronic and the waiters are very friendly. The bar is quite original: in the summer the outside terrace becomes a beach. In this bar things are very
